Effect of gut microbiome modulation on muscle function and cognition: the PROMOTE randomised controlled trial
M. N. Lochlainn, R. C. E. Bowyer, et al.
This placebo-controlled, double-blinded study by Mary Ni Lochlainn and colleagues explored a prebiotic supplement's effects on muscle function and cognition in older adults. While chair rise time showed no significant change, cognitive enhancements were noted, suggesting affordable gut microbiome interventions could improve cognitive health. This work also highlights the feasibility of conducting remote trials with older populations.
